Housing law grows ever more complex. New legislation and th egrowing number of reported cases - both in first instance and at appeal - increase the need for advice workers, solicitors, barristers and housing managers to find relevant cases quickly and easily. Aimed at all housing law practitioners, this text gives immediate access to summaries of all the relevant cases in housing law.

This third edition has been expanded and updated to include over 700 new cases and new chapters on European Court of Human Rights cases and community care and a revised chapter on possession procedure.
